Final Demonic Slime Bath Of The Mutated VHS Box Art!!!

This concludes two weeks of over 500 VHS covers! Some you've seen before, many more I'm sure you've not. I was a child in the eighties and video stores were my introduction to the kind of artwork that I've devoted my life to. I spent a lot of time looking at all the insane box art in the horror and science fiction sections in what was then called Stop One Video. Seeing many of these covers again, they're just as incredible and fantastic as I remember them. It's sad to see the sort of artwork that passes for the covers of dvds and blue ray discs these days. I suppose isolated heads against black backgrounds is all film companies want to use to introduce their films to their audience anymore.

I'm trying to remember the name of a film... the cover had a baby with a knife on the neck... I think the head was twisted... I remember running away 1st time I saw it! (I was 9 or 10... so... 20 years ago) thanks!

Several films from the early 80's Saturn 3 even with Farrah Faucett's poor acting skills I liked the movie "Hector" was great.... I think the "Xtro" is actually "Xtro 2"... that was the one with military... ( There was the "Plastic army man" who went after the old lady who killed the boy's pet snake) Great Post..

I spend many hours tracking down artwork, scanning, editing, cleaning up and formatting much of the content shared here. You can show your support and help keep Monster Brains ad free by donating any amount, thank you!
